When scientists give a talk, the audience (\"guests\") expects the title of the talk to determine presentation content, they require understandable slides, and they demand visible and audible scientific authority. To each expectation corresponds a set of skills: personal (voice, host qualities, time control), technical (presentation tools and slide design), and scientific (Q\u0026amp;A, slide content).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe author takes an original human factor view of the presentation delivery, in which the audience is easily distracted, rapidly forgetful, and increasingly impatient. Thus, insightful pointers are given on how to deliver the talk, how to craft the slides, and how to prevent the computer from rendering the presenting host-scientist into a \"ghost\". In addition, the book goes in-depth over the treatment of questions by examining the motives and style of the questioners, and advising on how best to answer to each type of questioner.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book comes with a DVD for audio and video examples, and includes essential PowerPoint and Keynote techniques that a presenter cannot live without.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lebrun Jean-Luc\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9812839194\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789812839190\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e World Scientific Publishing Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.90h x 6.70w x 0.80d","brand":"Lebrun Jean-Luc","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48446707728639,"sku":"9789812839190","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2f754e65-234f-40f4-9b97-54b30e8a7814.jpg?v=1777226424","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/when-scientist-presents-w-dvd-lebrun-jean-luc-9789812839190","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
